A delicate article I came across today is a bout love. What a big topic love is! And the author, Avalon De Witt, sounds so understanding in explaining the evaluation we need to do to distinguish love and lust. There are 10 questions you should ask to yourself to know the feeling better. If the answers are “yes”, then it’s love.
1. Can you be yourself in front of your partner without any fear of rejection?
2. Can you accept the aspects in which your partner is different from you?
3. Can and will you discuss your differences together?
4. Do you care about his/her desire, goal, success, and spiritual development?

8. Do you still have your own life?
